Coyotes Popping Up All Around New York City: Report
If you think you saw a coyote while walking around Manhattan, you probably did. As reported by the New York Post, there has been an increase in coyote sightings across New York City and the majority of which have taken place in the heart of Manhattan. While NYC isn’t exactly the first place you would think to go if you want to spot a wild animal, people across Manhattan have apparently been seeing way more coyotes than usual. Sure, there’s always been one popping up here or there but thirty-five coyotes so far this year? That’s just absurd.
The report reads that as many as thirty-five coyotes have been spotted in the Big Apple in 2019 alone. That’s already way more than in previous years. That number is four times larger than 2018’s final statistic and six times more than in 2017. That’s a lot of coyotes.
